Twenty-four-year-old Lance Stroll has been a consistent presence in Formula 1 since his debut with Williams in 2017. He has since raced for Racing Point and is currently with Aston Martin, where he has completed the last three seasons. However, this season has seen Stroll face criticism due to a perceived decline in his performance when compared to his teammate, Fernando Alonso. This has raised doubts about his future with the team among some in the Formula 1 community. In a peculiar incident, the organizers of the upcoming United States Grand Prix in Austin mistakenly featured Aston Martin test and reserve driver Drugovich instead of Stroll on a promotional poster showcasing the current F1 drivers.
While this error was swiftly corrected, it sparked further speculation about Stroll's future in both the team and the sport as a whole. Fans are curious about the potential for Drugovich to step into Stroll's role in the near future.
